This is the ElectroniCast analysis and forecast of the worldwide use of flashlights, segmented by the major geographic regions. In some areas outside of North America, flashlights are often referred to as “torches.” Flashlights are portable electric-powered light source. The primary power source of a flashlight is batteries (rechargeable or disposable); however, power sources can often include ultra-capacitors, electromagnetic induction, solar power, and hand powered dynamos.

Market Forecast, By Region

The market data are segmented into the following geographic regions, plus a Global summary; separate data-sheets are provided for the U.S.A. and Rest of the America region, as sub-sets of the America region:

Global

America

United States of America (sub-set of America)

Rest of America (sub-set of America)

EMEA (Europe, Middle East, plus Africa)

APAC (Asia Pacific)

Market Forecast Application Categories

This market forecast of each product-type by the following end-user type (application) categories:

Commercial/Industrial

Government-Sector

Military/Law Enforcement/First Responders

Other Government-Sector

Consumer/Non-Specific

Market Forecast, By Function

This report provides the 2014 market data review and 2015-2021 forecast for flashlights by the following functions:

Consumption Value

Quantity (number/units)

Average Selling Prices

The consumption value is determined by multiplying the number of units by the average selling price. The average selling prices are based on the price of the flashlight (including the initial batteries and recharging accessories) at the initial factory level. The consumption values are based on the end-user application and the end-user region.

Market Forecast, by Light Source

In this study, we provide a market forecast and analysis for the use of flashlights in the United States based on the following light source types, as well as flashlights equipped for recharging versus standard (not rechargeable/equipped types):

Light Emitting Diode (LED) Flashlight

Rechargeable

Standard

Halogen Incandescent Flashlight

Rechargeable

Standard

Argon or Krypton Incandescent Flashlight

Note:There are 155 (market) Data Tables in each of the “Tables” Tabs. All of the 31-Global Tables are shown in the TEXT of the report (PDF File); however (only) 5 of the 31-Data Tables in each of the Regional Tables are presented in the PDF (report text) File. Therefore, clients need to open the Excel File to view all of the Data Tables. Also, the Global Market Figures, which are presented in the text (PDF File) and the PowerPoint File, are driven from the Excel File.

Since the market opportunity for flashlights continues to evolve, through the push by manufacturers to differentiate from each other to achieve increasing revenue, there is a need to explore technology-driven solutions addressing, but not limited to the list shown below. The relationship of cost of materials, along with the end-user price-points, are important considerations for flashlight manufacturers; however, there are many other items of interest to consider in finding ways to differentiate from your competitors.

The capacitor can be recharged more rapidly than a battery and can be recharged many times without loss of capacity; however, the running time is limited by the relative bulk of capacitors compared to electrochemical cells

Electromagnetic Induction

Solar power

Hand powered dynamos

In the process of this market research project, in addition to interviewing existing customers and distributors of flashlights, ElectroniCast Consultants also studied over 60 flashlight manufactures/brands with various ranges of performance, price, power-source, light source and other variables.
